Shooting Saddam
SHOOTING SADDAM is a behind-the-scenes narrative of the televised coverage of Saddam Hussein’s trial and conviction. The trial serves as a backdrop for the tale of Court TV cameraman on an amusing and enlightening journey at the peak of Baghdad’s civil unrest.


“As a videographer, Dennis tells a story through the camera lens but now, in Shooting Saddam, he displays a remarkable talent for storytelling through words. Lynch strikes a proper balance between self-deprecating humor and the somber portrayal of a terrifying subject—the trial and death verdict of a tyrant.”

---Beth Karas, legal analyst, former Court TV correspondent

"Dennis is the consummate storyteller with a keen eye for details and color that brings the tales he tells to life. An uncanny ability to bring the reader or viewer along on the journey into the stories that have become, and will become, the history of our time."

--- Brian Skoloff, journalist, author, "Killer Girlfriend: The Jodi Arias Story”

"Shooting Saddam" is a courtroom drama like none else you have ever, or will ever likely read.

James F Kyle, Senior Producer Al Jazeera America

“It’s Lynch’s eye for the absurd detail that makes this Green-Zone tale so worthwhile. “

About the Author

As a Court TV cameraman, Dennis Lynch has been in the courtroom of nearly every high profile hearing or trial west of the Mississippi—including Jodi Arias, O.J. Simpson’s Las Vegas trial, Dr. Conrad Murray, Scott Peterson, Robert Blake, Ted Binion, Phil Spector, Noura Jackson, James Ray/Sweat lodge, Brandon Wilson/Matthew Cecchi, David Westerfield/Danielle van Dam, Kobe Bryant, and Manson Family parole hearings. When courtroom cameras weren’t permitted, Dennis moved outside with the reporters for trials such as Warren Jeffs, Elizabeth Smart, O.J. Simpson civil trial, Matthew Shepard, and Michael Jackson’s pedophile case. The trials have been carried live on Court TV, In Session, HLN, CNN, and featured numerous times as main stories on Dateline, 48 Hours, and 20/20. Dennis and associated productions received numerous acknowledgements including the CINE Golden Eagle, Gold Cindy/IFPA, Angel and Halo, Film Advisory Board of Excellence, and Telly awards
